Abstract

eural Network (NN) is designed to detect QRS complex from ECG signal. QRS complex detection is essential so that RR-interval can be measured for disease classification and can also be monitoring the heart rate. In this paper, a supervised Neural Network based algorithm has been used to detect R in QRS complex. It was tried to find out the R-peak in QRS complex with missing peak and false peak as well, so that the correct decision can be made by the physician and clinician. The accuracy of finding the R-peak by using the Neural Network was 99.09% averagely and the average percentage of missing and false peak was 00.09%. The technique appears to be exceedingly robust, correctly detects R-peaks even aberrant QRS complexes in noise-corrupted ECGs.
